Fred Robbins Activated Off of the PUP: DT Fred Robbins, who is recovering from microscopic knee surgery, was activated off of the Physically-Unable-to-Perform (PUP) List yesterday. He also practiced on a limited basis, participating in individual drills.

“Well he’s been doing a little individual work, and he’s going to start doing a little bit with the team (drills),” said Head Coach Tom Coughlin. “He’s got to keep up with the conditioning and all of that other stuff too…He’s supposed to be able to do some (team drills on Monday). Anything we get from him will be good.”

“Carr is fine,” said Head Coach Tom Coughlin. “He’s good to go. He had a (triceps) strain.”

“Steve (Smith) fell on his knee last night and it swelled up a little bit,” said Coughlin. “As soon as the swelling goes down, he’ll be okay.”

“(Louis has a) lateral ankle, which is a good thing,” said Coughlin. “He has had his ankle rolled before, so it usually takes a day or so. Once the swelling goes down, he should be pretty much ready to go…He was very lucky…not only him, but we were, too.”

“Webster had a little hip flexor that was bothering him (Sunday) morning,” said Coughlin. “Hopefully he’s not going to be out for too long.”

Quotes: The Giants practiced a 5-1-5 nickel defensive lineup yesterday that had Justin Tuck playing nose tackle. “There’s more to come because we have other guys who haven’t been practicing,” said Head Coach Tom Coughlin. “We’re just trying to create different things for teams to deal with. With Osi (Umenyiora) back, it will make us even more flexible. Justin Tuck has also been up and down, outside and inside. We’re just getting started playing around with that kind of stuff.”
